    FX8 Preset Exchange

    Catalinbread Belle Epoch / Echoplex EP-3 Back and forth on this trying to get it just right. It's like 90% there. The delay block "Belle Epoch" is a mono tape with eq adjustment to roll off highs and lows, moved slightly forward. You'll see what I did if you compare to the stock mono tape eq...

    FX8 Preset Exchange

    Leslie / Rotating Speaker Effect I scoured the forum for settings, and created blocks for each. Some of these settings may have been in previous firmware and the forum members might now not necessarily stand by them. However, I feel like they're an excellent range of options. Block names...

    FX8 Preset Exchange

    SolidGold "If 6 was 9" BC108CS and BC183 silicon fuzz Thanks to @lqdsnddist for matching and sharing on this thread! I found the BC108 to be a very good silicon fuzz face for a Gilmourish "Time" solo, while the BC183 seemed warmer like a germanium fuzz face.

    FX8 Preset Exchange

    Keeley 30ms, ADT block Thanks to @iaresee for developing this and providing screenshots on his thread. I went back and forth and the only difference I can detect is that the Keeley 30ms has more of a constant and detectable pulse to the modulation. This is with the Keeley 30ms pedal in Abbey...

    My First Fractal: FX8 = "Delivered" !

    Thanks! I'll be sure to share my block later today. I'd go ahead and read about it, too, so you can get an idea on what changes what in case you'd like to tweak it. The settings and screenshots in this thread are spot on, really, and quick to set. I went back and forth and the only...

    Wish EP Booster effect

    I was just noticing last night that the Parametric EQ block and the drive block (thanks @philipacamaniac !) remind me very, very much of the EP Booster pedal I used to own. It sounded really good: I know exactly what you're talking about, @massless . One thing that struck me a similar to the...

    Wish EP Booster effect

    I just realized that my post wasn't about the EP Booster by Xotic, but since that's their take on the EP3 preamp, I'm going to assume that's the goal here. Check out this YouTube vid playing on/off versions of famous Zeppelin licks with the early (upper mid accentuated) and late (flat EQ)...

    Wish EP Booster effect

    I had seen the IR of the Echoplex, but alas since I have the FX8 I can't use it. I was just trying to clone my Catalinbread Belle Epoch yesterday to my FX8 using the Mono Tape setting and I could get really, really close with the EQ of the repeats...but something was just missing, even when I...

    BC108 and BC183 Silicon fuzz pedals

    Wow, that was quick--thanks! I had the chance to try them out on my lunch break (benefits of working super close to home), and these are truly inspiring fuzz blocks! I used a Tele bridge pup into the amp set to edge of breakup, and the "Time" solo immediately jumped out of my guitar. I think...

    BC108 and BC183 Silicon fuzz pedals

    This is awesome, thank you--I'd love to check this out! I just got a FX8 and am in the process of matching my existing pedals as you have done. However, since I have the FX8 I'm unable to use the Axe-Fx II .syx file type. If it's not inconvenient and you have an opportunity, would you...

    My First Fractal: FX8 = "Delivered" !

    Wow, this thing!! I've only had the opportunity for about 4 quality hours with the FX8 and I need more! Right away, though, I was able to dial in some great sounding effects. I messed around with the presets as a sort of introduction/learning experience, and it's really easy to get lost in...

    How do I get a Gilmour like rotary?

    Hey @BrickGlass thanks so much for sharing your settings! I'm working with the FX8 unit, so being able to read detailed settings or save blocks is the only way for me to pick up on the awesome discoveries by other members. It's a great way to quickly get going on some recognizable effects and...

    Stereo Tape Double Tracking Studio Tricks

    I've set this up and it's awesome! Still need to do a side by side with my Keeley 30ms pedal, but just on its own this version sounds and feels inspiring just like the Keeley pedal does. According to the Keeley 30ms web page Instructions tab, the Delay Time knob goes from 0 ms to a max of 30...

    Rush/Lifeson 2112 Meastro PS1-a Phase Shifter request

    Thanks for the response. I think it was a 6 stage phaser, so I'll definitely give that a shot. My FX8 should arrive on Friday, so I'm reading up in the meantime :)

    Rush/Lifeson 2112 Meastro PS1-a Phase Shifter request

    I've just come across this via looking for a Zeppelin "No Quarter" phase search, as John Paul Jones also apparently used the Maestro PS1-a on his keyboards live. Did you ever find anything to use on the FX8?

    Stereo Tape Double Tracking Studio Tricks

    Thank you for the screenshots!! I've got a FX8 on the way and I was really hoping for a way to replace my Keeley 30ms pedal. I'm really wishy washy on tremolo, phaser, and flanger modulation effect types, but when I got the 30ms pedal it was one of those Ah Ha moments and I knew I'd been...

    Fractal Audio DRIVE Models: forum threads

    I've got an FX8 on the way, and I'm so thankful to belong to this forum with awesome members who contribute so much! Drive model threads will be super helpful to FX8 users since there are no amp models and the preset .syx file types don't work in the FX8. Really appreciate it! And hopefully...

    So... St Paddy's Day is just around the corner...

    Oh no! I never noticed the CPU is at 84% in the Axe-Edit screenshot at the beginning. Well shoot...that sucks. Anything to be done...maybe a different reverb type? (I've read that's a common CPU hog) Edit to add that based on the CPU usage outline on the AxeFx tutorials website, I'm seeing...

    Introduction thread

    Just posted for for the first time after lurking for a while, and thought I should come here to introduce myself to the forum members. Hello! I've been somewhat active on other music gear and guitar forums for years, but the recent release of the AX8 has made it just about attainable for me...

    So... St Paddy's Day is just around the corner...

    This happens to be one reason I'm seriously considering the AX8...whenever it becomes available, that is! I love that it's so capable and that owners are so generous with their patches and advice.
